Heavenly Father, we come before You today on behalf of Martha from Zambia. Lord, Your Word assures us in Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight." We lift up Martha's situation to You, trusting in Your divine wisdom and guidance.
Father, Martha has invested her savings with hope and trust, but now faces uncertainty and distress. We ask that You surround her with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, as promised in Philippians 4:7. Calm her heart and mind, Lord, and help her to find solace in Your presence.
Lord, we pray for justice and resolution. In Psalm 37:5-6, it is written, "Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him and He will do this: He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun." We ask that You intervene in this situation, bringing truth to light and ensuring that Martha's investments are returned, if it is Your will.
We also pray for Martha's friend who introduced her to this business. Touch this friend's heart, Lord, and bring about a spirit of honesty and reconciliation. Restore communication and trust, and let Your love and truth prevail in their relationship.
Father, we ask for strength and courage for Martha. As it is written in Isaiah 40:31, "But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." Renew Martha's strength and hope, and guide her steps forward.
We pray all these things in the mighty and precious name of Jesus. Amen.
